Team Ostler: Ostler Family Christmas Party

Ostler Family Christmas Party

Okay, it's definitely time to catch up on my blog. I'm sure very few people actually read this blog but that's okay because the reason I even have a blog is simply to document the events in our family. I have plans to make it into a blog book but that's kind of far down on my to do list. But one day I will do it.

So for Christmas this year we went to Utah. Despite some car trouble and sickness, we had a fun time. I think that next year we will be staying home for the holidays. It's just getting too hard to travel with kids at Christmas. While we were in Utah we went to the Ostler family party. There is like a gazillion people in Jim's family so it was crowded but we had a fun time catching up with people that we don't get to see very often.

Daniel got home from his mission in the Ukraine so it was great to be able to see him again and catch up with him. The kids enjoyed getting reacquainted with their uncle. He was so good with all of the nephews. He's going to make a great dad some day.

Funny Things Kids Say

We were at church and during the sacrament I was talking to Luke about Jesus. I told him that Jesus bled and died for us. Luke looked at me with a very concerned look and said, "Did Heavenly Father give Jesus a band-aid when he was bleeding?"

We were about to walk out the door so I told Luke to go potty. He came out of the bathroom saying, "I can't go! The batteries in my pee pee are dead!"

After Ben finished a big meal he said, "my tummy is so big and full I look like Grandpa now!" (sorry dad).

Ben pointed to a picture of the prophet and said, "That's President Monckley!"

We have a saying in our house. It's "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" But Ben has his own version of this. He says "you get what you WANT and you don't throw a fit!"

Jimmy said that he is allergic to babies. I asked him how he knew and he said that he gets sick when he smells them.

Ben asked me for another piece of halloween candy and I said, "Mommy is ready for the halloween candy to be gone" and Ben said, "Yea, gone in my mouth!"

We were driving past the gas station sign and Ben said, "I see a lowercase 5 on that sign."

I was talking to Jimmy about election day and asking him if his teacher voted and he said that she was "absent" that day. (I finally realized what he meant. She had just mailed in an absentee ballot.)

Ben put a whole bunch of toilet paper in the garbage and I told him that is a no, no. He said, "no it's a yes, yes!"

I tell Jimmy on a regular basis that needs to talk nicely. He yelled something across the room to me and I gave him the look that said I didn't like the tone of his voice and he said, "I was yelling nicely!"

Jimmy and I are listening to "Give Said the Little Stream" and Jimmy says "How does it talk?" I said "How does what talk?" He said, "The stream, it doesn't have a mouth, how can it talk?"
